7. Skinny (5:43)
So here you are in your small little world
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear about your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And every time I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their gracious-less win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they won
It just means that the shit has just begun
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
Yeah
Skinny
Skinny
Yeah
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear about your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And every time I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their gracious-less win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they won
It just means that the shit has just begun
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
(Skinny) And it will make you cry
(Skinny) And it will make you lie
(Skinny) And if it makes you soft inside
(Skinny) At least you will not die
Yeah
Skinny
Skinny
Yeah
